<p>Hello, </p><p>I am sorry to hear about your concern. </p><p>A few thoughts. With everything else having healed fine, there are two things I would be guessing about. One, a suture reaction from a knot under the skin. At the beginning and end of the incision, there is a knot that holds everything together. Sometimes, you can get a local reaction from the knot ends under the skin. My other concern would be a hernia has formed (essentially, a little hole formed in the wall of the belly allowing some tissue to come trhough). </p><p>Definitely, worth having a second opinion on it. I can't say with any certainty if your vet is right and there is no concern, or if they are blowing off the problem and not really giving the situation appropriate attention. </p><p> </p><p>Good Luck</p><p>Dr. Andy</p>
